Auto Music – Reitzell’s first solo release – began as a series of private recordings made at his studio to test out techniques and explore textures and sounds. He screened DVDs in his studio while making the album, so each track has a specific visual key, such as Spanish 70s art film Spirit Of The Beehive or the early pre-Fantasia animations of Oskar Fischinger. “I wasn’t making a pop record,“ Brian says, “I was experimenting with sounds to further my knowledge for creating music for my film projects and exploring new ways to make music.”
